Headless remote desktop, at least for KDE, is very much not possible today as far as I can tell. It's the last thing I miss from Xorg.

- yjftsjthsd-h 10mo agoFWIW, like everything else in Wayland, it's per-compositor. Here's a working headless sway in a container: https://gitlab.com/yjftsjthsd-g/docker_sway-vnc https://gitlab.com/yjftsjthsd-g/docker_sway-vnc (This is not a defense of Wayland, just trying to share useful information)
- ptx 10mo agoHmm, you mention in the README that it only works in a privileged container. This of course negates the security benefits Wayland supposedly has over X11, so it doesn't seem ideal.
- yjftsjthsd-h 10mo agoIt really doesn't. The security benefits of Wayland are about isolating applications from each other, which this still has. Also that's only really relevant to this running in a container. My point was that you can have headless Wayland.
